Day 4 Cowarumup and Donnybrooks Fruit Orchard 19 Apr 07

The day started with an half an hour drive north to Cowarumup town for the famous Margaret River Chocolate Factory and Cape Lavender. Reached too early at the MR Choc Factory, so we went to visit the Cape Lavender first. Think its not the lavender season, not a lot of lavender around. But check out best pic of Jared taken there. Its the nicest pic throughout the trip.

MR Chocolate Factory got this free flow of chocolate chips, which Jared get to choose from milk/choc milk/dark choc. Jared's fav is the choc milk. Managed to try their chocolate drink, which they boast to be the best in the world which I thought so so nia wuh.
Then we visited the Candy cow-candy shop and MR Dairy Company..which were on the way..before the long drive back to Perth.

We took an alternate path back to Perth so that we could stop by at Donnybrook's Old Goldfield Fruit Orchard. Even though it make the journey back to Perth almost longer by 2x...its worth the trip.

We saw red ripen apples..lotsa of them on the trees..So excited..and Jared busy munching the apple, and me? busy trying and picking the apples loh. We also saw some plums (daddy's fav) and pear. Had a hard time searching for edible plum, its end of season, so most of them almost rotten..but it's daddy's fav fruit..so I took some time to look around and managed to find a few. Very sweet plum. The apples are a bit sour though.
